General Q and A

Regardless, I think the smaller variety would be more common. Like... River mermaids and humansized ones would be common, and generic giants would rarer.

Question exactly how long do mermaids breath underwater?

Joking joking

Alright real question would it be alright to create something close to Columbia from the up coming game BioShock: Infinite. Of course with lots and lots of messing around and changing certain aspects so its not a complete knock off of the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WDQ4FhslSk

Not sure why but it seems like it might be a good idea to toy around with

Hmm, well, I'd be against just a total rip off.

But a flying city would have an interesting set of benefits... and problems, mainly harpies.

On a smaller scale, I had an idea that the Negav Government would build a few smaller airships, for the purpose of scientific and magical study of areas of Felarya, since any land based expedition is far too likely to die.

Doesn't Shatterock already fulfill the 'flying city' mentality?

I'd say it does.

I dont belive anyone here yet has asked this qustion(sorry if so), but I have recently read a story that involed exo-ship of some-sorts in Felarya and said ship(s) had used something like a tence beam of energy to burn the ground into glass and then said ships left. This story had made me wonder:
1. How can an exo ship of any sort get into felarya?
2. How can said ship(s) start glassing and not get destroyed by the Guardeains?
3. How can said ship(s) get out of Felarya?

Here is the link to the story I'm refurning to: link

It can't.

The ONLY way any kind of ship could maybe reach Felarya is if it had some kind of dimensional drive...but why would you put something like that on a ship designed to travel through space? That would be like putting a jet engine on a submarine.

Not to mention, putting that kind of system on something as large as a spaceship just seems excessive. You're better off just making a portal generator to send people and small vehicles through.

Not all stories are a proper depiction of things that can actually happen in Felarya.

Then tell that to the guy who wrote the story. Also, if all of that is true, then why did Karbo liked the story??? (This was proably ment for stabs to answer, for he kepts track of all stories that take place in Felarya.)

Karbo likes to be nice to people.

As long as the story isn't doing something horribly offensive, he will at least try to leave a positive comment.

He believes that people have the right to write what they want about Felarya, even if it isn't really correct as far as the canon goes. He doesn't like to step on people's toes by saying "This story isn't right".

Sorry about the double posts, but I want to keep "me as a mod" posts separate from "me as a forum user" posts.

What are the effects of Oosoon berries? I assume they are alcoholic from the related picture, but I couldn't find anything on them in the wiki. Do they only grow in the misty glade?

While they seem to have been changed some since they were first created, you ought to be able to find more information in this thread.

From that thread I got:

"In fairies however, the effect is a bit different, it puts them into a deep sleep, possibly a coma that can last days, and acts fairly fast."

The description seems to state nothing about the effects that those fairies seem to exhibit in the picture on this page:

CLIFF!

How dare you mock the awesomeness that is JetSub!

Joking aside, having Extra Dimensional Mobility on a starship makes more sense then you might think, especially if it relies on an FTL system that uses some sort of extra dimension to begin with and certainly if it is an Interstellar Warship.
Really, the ability to pop into another reality could be extremely useful for space combat, allowing one to simply appear amongst the enemy fleet and disappear at will.

Still, it begs the question:
Why in the FRACK were they glassing Felarya?

Hmm, not sure if it has been asked yet... but I've not seen it in the wiki, so;
- How is the entry to the city of Negav controled? (I asume that it's not a city that you can enter and exit like any other one)
*From the point of view of a newcomer.
*From the point of view of an "habitual" resident or adventurer
(if there is difference)

Then;
-What are the conditions to become a resident?

For a humanoid, I don't think its that complex. Negav does have gates like any other city. True, there might be magical scans to look out for potentially super-dangerous people, but besides that I think its sort of go in and out as you please - that's most conducive to attracting merchants and potential customers.

The difference is for non-humanoids - in Felarya, generally this refers to small tauric species. There is more suspicion and control there, the exact details of which haven't been worked out.

As for being a resident, the only condition is being a humanoid, and having enough money to pay the assumably horrendous rent rates. I figure due to overcrowding the Police regularly sweep the streets to eject the homeless - so if you don't have an address you better pay for an inn or be forced to sleep in the Pit, or outside the walls.

About the Oosoon berries, I admit had gone through a few ideas for what they did, they were meant of RP purposes. In the end they just got magical creatures, such as fairies, drunk.

Heh... this is a weird thing that came to mind... in an rp...

You know how some people get head lice? Well, what if a giant predator gets some? Would they be huge or just... normal...?

Clearly they would be tiny licetaurs.

Great, now I'm imagining that Hybrid blood turns you into some kind of Hybrid...

YOU SON OF A BITCH.

You have the humans with there empire right? But do the predators have any form of organisation?(not counting the former dridder empire and the fairy kingdom)???

Phantom Elves live in Sunfall Thicket, which is in perpetual night time. I am wondering, do they have superior vision than humans in the darkness, and are they sensitive to daylight?

There are also the Crimson Maidens, but that's about it for organised predators.
